Jan-Ole Schiemann: If there was a letter for it
October 1 – 25, 2024 514 West 28th Street, New York Kasmin presents Cologne-based painter Jan-Ole Schiemann’s (b. 1983) third solo presentation at the gallery, If There Was A Letter For It. On view will be new canvas paintings that index a careful process of gestural mark making, featuring Schiemann’s first series of paintings to incorporate oil paint. With oil, Schiemann intensifies the expression of velocity within his work, capturing a range of motion in thick gestural marks that glide across the canvas in assertive colorways. Returning to the grid as a guiding compositional strategy, Schiemann imparts a distinct geometric character in these paintings, expanding his singular visual vocabulary.
